    The Brooks Lee catch, BTW.

    Like...IBB Buxton, the go ahead run, bottom 9 with a RH pitcher on the mound? Like that?
  3. USAFChief
    What? A reliever who gives up a run in an inning failed. Particularly when it's this stupid "opener" thing. Relievers are going to give up runs, true. But when they do, thats a failure. Plain and simple. Limit the failures. But dont pretend they're not failures.

    False. 32 percent. As measured by OPS+. And its 5 percent in 2025. I like Wallner, but he K's too much to be someone you can hope to build an offense around. He'd make a nice 6 or 7 hole hitter for a real offense.
  5. USAFChief
    I mean, I guess they're trying to avoid injury. I guess. But its counterproductive.

    Even the starters aren't prepared to be starters. Festa topped out at 102 IP in any minor league season. 92 IP in 24 games in 2023. 92, ferpetesakes. Starters go 4 or 5 innings once a week. Pretty much never throw even 100 pitches. How the heck do they imagine that prepares anyone for any kind of MLB career?
  7. USAFChief
    I so want to like Wallner as a player. Part of that is just sheer desperation for anything resembling a good MLB hitter to join the Twins. But he sure is testing my patience.
  8. USAFChief
    Coming off back issues, up by 6 runs.
  9. USAFChief
    There are many issues, but I don't think Baldelli is "low hanging fruit." His management is one of the core basic issues with this organization. Not the only one, to be sure. But one that certainly needs correction.
  10. USAFChief
    Apologies. As usual, youre correct
  11. USAFChief
    Your actual quote was "fundamentally awful AB." And you spent roughly 10000 words telling us he was fooled. On a pitch he put in play for a single. Refusing to admit what your eyes saw because it would somehow put Baldelli and analytics in a poor light. [edited] For the record, everyone else here is more than welcome to make age jokes at my expense. Its fun and harmless. But not you.
  12. USAFChief
    Wow. Don't get all huffy now just cause it was a ridiculous take. You could just admit you were wrong.
  13. USAFChief
    It was a trick question...
  14. USAFChief
    Do the Twins score on that WP?
  15. USAFChief
    Slider to K Churio was a big league pitch.
  16. USAFChief
    Where's @chpettit19to tell me that weak ground ball single through the hole to right was a "failed AB?" I'd call it a great piece of hitting.
  17. USAFChief
    Pfft. That's barely half the potential.
  18. USAFChief
    Dunno whether Larnach should have tried to score on the ball in the dirt, but I know this: Correa should have been on 2nd. Piss poor baserunning.
  19. USAFChief
    Festa got lucky on the third out. The runner at 2nd had 3rd stolen without a throw. Its just ridiculous how unprepared this team is to handle any running game. Its an indictment of management. And it just continues to fester. Zero indication anyone at any level even notices, much less tries to do anything about it.
  20. USAFChief
    After a bunt single. Milwaukee has embarrassed the Twins all weekend. But never fear, the Twins won't change a thing.
  21. USAFChief
    Hahahaha. Anybody can play anywhere
  22. USAFChief
    He topped out at 103.2 IP in any year in his minor league career. And the Twins expect him to step into MLB rotation For me its hard to understand what the theory is.
  23. USAFChief
    Hell of an AB from Buck, came back from down 0-2.
  24. USAFChief
    Bonus! Festa gets to start with the 6-9 hitters!
  25. USAFChief
    Contreras starts at catcher all 3 games for the Brewers. Rocco and the Twins consider filing a complaint with the NLRB.
